Description: | A copper alloy, medieval, tongue-shaped strap end dating from AD1300-1500 The strap-end is of a composite, three-piece form with a forked spacer between two sheets. It has a central knop at the terminal and the attachment end has two 'v' shaped grooves. It is in good condition and appears to have some material remaining between the sheets. The terminal end has a central copper alloy rivet; there is also a single rivet at the attachment end in the centre. The strap-end measures 29.39mm in length, 14.99mm in width and 3.49mm in thickness. It weighs 5.33g. A very similar parallel can be seen in Egan & Pritchard's 'Dress Accessories'; Fig.93.
